Acopy machine depricicates at the rate of 15% each year. if the original cost fo the copy machine was $20,000 , what is the approximate value of the machine after 3 years

The approximate value of machine after 3 years = $12283

Step-by-step explanation:

Original cost of the copy machine = $20,000

Rate of depreciation each year = 15%

To, find cost of machine after 3 years.

Solution:

The depreciation equation can be given by:

where:

Final value

Original value

rate od depreciation in decimal form

time

Given values:

Using the values to find the value of machine after 3 years.

Thus, approximate value of machine after 3 years = $12283

this was already solved by me with a different person. if you look it up in the search bar at the top of the page, you will get the answer.

step-by-step explanation:

u = -(6/7)w

step-by-step explanation:

place all values with 'u' on one side of the equation.

4u + 8w = - 3u + 2w

4u + 3u = 2w - 8w

further simplify the equation by solving the addition and subtraction.

7u = - 6w

make 'u' the independent variable by placing its co-efficient on the right-hand side.

u = - (6/7)w
